Spencer Weir-Daley (born 5 September 1985, in Leicester, England) is a young footballer playing for Notts County.
Weir-Daley started his career at Nottingham Forest, progressing through their Academy and making his debut after successful spells in the youth and reserve teams. He made his debut in a League Cup game against Macclesfield Town and scored on his Football League debut with Forest in a 3–1 away win over Gillingham. After eight first-team appearances, he was side-lined by a shoulder injury.[1] It would keep him out for the remainder of the 2005–06 season.
In the August 2007, Weir-Daley signed on loan for struggling League Two side Macclesfield Town for three months.[2] He played seven league games and scored twice. In January 2007 he moved on loan to another League Two side, Lincoln City,[3] on loan sparking interest in a permanent deal after scoring two goals against Walsall.[4] His form brought him into consideration for the League Two February player of the month award.[5]
On 22 March 2007, the deadline for emergency loans, Weir-Daley was signed on loan by League One club Bradford City.[6] After returning, Weir-Daley made his final appearance for Forest as a substitute in a 2–0 win over Yeovil Town in their League One play-off semi-final first leg. He made seven league appearances for Forest, all as a substitute, 11 in total, scoring two goals.
Weir-Daley rejected interest from Bradford to sign a two-year deal with Notts County.[7]
Weir-Daley became the first Notts County striker to score in the 2007–08 season (including pre season), when he scored in his third start of the season in Notts County's 1–1 draw with Rotherham United on 22 September 2007.
